*Official* England in India 2023/24 #CryMoreTour

Looked like a team strategy. Pretty much everyone after Jaiswal played like that, Jadeja only hit those 2 sixes because he was afraid of the shooter.

Long way back but every run is crucial! Each run we score now is one less to chase

Just delaying the inevitable this pair. Best case scenario England still have a fairly significant lead, and no way this side chases anything above 250 in the 4th innings.
So much time in this game too, could be really ugly if Root and the rest tee off in the 3rd innings. We're relying heavily on Ashwin finding peak form and Rohit actually showing some imagination as captain.

New ball can also bring run flow like it was seen today
It must've been noisy in the stadium
The issue with David is he was old fashion during his playing days, he still is and will always be. Zero innovation or trying something creative.

only 135 behind now - they could knock off this deficit

Dravid's way too passive to coach this team. I think he would have gelled well with a more proactive captain like Kohli, but both him and Rohit are too happy to let the game drift. Dravid's captaincy tenure was much the same.

It's been a quiet passage of play, so I wondered how Hartley's 18 wickets and counting rates in the hauls of English spinners in India.
1984/85 - Pocock and Edmonds 13 and 14 wickets respectively
1972/73 - Pocock and Underewood 14 and 15 wickets respectively
2012 - Panesar 17 wickets
2024 - Hartley 18 wickets
2020/21 - Leach 19 wickets
2012 - Swann 20 wickets
1963/64 - Titmus 27 wickets
1976/77 - Underwood 29 wickets
No idea what happened before the 1960s.

Sounds silly but seeing Gill and Rohit laughing and quite relaxed on the balcony shows although a long way behind in the game they still are fairly relaxed

Ashwin’s form with the ball is quite worrisome.

Yeah India sadly favourites from here. But our plucky underdogs showed some fight at least.
